But the real chaos had just begun and Richie couldn’t believe the scale on which the Tartan Army had partied, especially as it was a Monday night.

As the drinks continued to flow, the atmosphere went up another level. Whiskey shots appeared, pints were passed around and soon 500 Miles was blasting through the speakers as the Tartan Army turned a regular baseball game into something like a Scottish street party.

The Scots welcomed Ritchie into the celebration, even convincing him to drink beer from a hard hat amid the songs and chants in the stadium. While the influencer’s condition continued to worsen, supporters around him appeared completely unfazed.

As the night progressed, Richie repeatedly questioned how the Scots were even standing still, let alone singing, dancing and drinking at the same pace.

However it seems he didn’t let his hangover get to him too much as he decided to re-join the Scots and bought a kilt and a ticket for the Brazil clash, which sadly ended in a 3-0 defeat.
